This risk of a reality TV star being President is you get what they know: drama every day about obviously bad decisions that could have been avoided with a modicum of thought before executing them.

Personally, I feel like the government works well when it is doing what it needs to do without causing drama. The news media lives in the new. They love drama, so I can see why they favor such a president.

But, I am a technocrat. When I see stories about governmental accomplishments, I notice the amount of effort that went into it and appreciate when it was quiet, efficient, and effective. Of course, I prefer it when my boss and peers are the only ones who know what I did because… it was done well. It’s not a story. Making local headlines and God forbid national ones is a failure on my part. Being on a first-name basis with our spokesperson feels like failure.

I want a quiet president who gets things done because they are necessary not because they make headlines.
